DIPERLIL PARLEIMENI: 110 USE OF PEERS, MONDAY, MAY 21. The LOAD CIiANCELLOR presented a Bill for sus pending the granting of Places in Reversion. • Lord REDESDALE presented . a Bill for affordi n g relief to prisoners confined for debt. THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK. On the second reading of the Bill granting a Pen- Sion to the Duke of Brunswick, Lord HOLLAND rose, and re-stated his objections to the Bill, in the supposition that the Pension was to be taken from the Consolidated Fund, and thus tend to increase the burthens of the People. He was .not a little surprised that the Bill was not printed, or that the Noble Secretary of State had not at least stated from what fund the pension was to be drawn. IVltich had be. , ei, said on a former occasion about practising delusion on the people. He believed that on no subjed had the people 'been more deluded than on the subject of the Civil List. It had been solemnly pledged on the accesion of his Majesty to the throne, that no further debts would be incurred by the Civil List. Yet notwithstanding that solemn engagement several heavy debts had been incurred and paid off within these few years, without dimi nishing the pressure of the taxes. In the mean time the wealth of the Crown increased, and funds for, rnerly unknown were now acknowledged to exist.— He alluded to the Droits of Admiralty, which had accumulated to a sum far beyond what was neces sary to constitute,a fund for the payment of this pension. He was convinced that every one must see the propriety of taking it from that source, and not from the Consolidated Fund. Convinced at least he was that it must prove infinitely more acceptable to the feelings of the illustrious Duke himself, and more grateful to the feelings of his Majesty, that it should be taken from the Droits of the Admiralty, than that it should contribute to aggravate the burthens which weighed already so heavily on the pebple. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said that it was not usual to print such Bills. As to the debts of the Civil List, it was impossible they should not have increas ed during a period when it Was notorious that the price of articles had increased. It should also be re collected that the demands on .the Civil List had in creased, as the amount .of the hereditary revenues had diminished. Earl GREY' was willing to allow that provision should be made for the illustrious Person in ques tion, who had so many claims to the attention and respect of their Lordships; but while he ac knowledged the prOpriety of the grant, he was far from thinking that it,should fall upon the Consoli dated Fund: It would certainly come with a much better grace from the Droits of the Admiralty. After a few words from Lords Liverpool, Holland, and Rosslyn, the Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow, for which day their Lordships were summoned to attend, on the motion of Lord Holland. THE CATHOLICS. Lord GRRY, in the absence of Lord Donnough more, moved to discharge the order for taking the Petition of the Irish Catholics into consideration to morrow, and postponed the motion on that subject till Fridly, June 1, on account of the indisposition of a Noble Friend of his. Lord GREY also deferred his own motion for an Address to his, Majesty on the State of the Nation till the Friday following. THE NAVY. Lord MELVILLE brought forward his promised motion respeCting the propriety of employing ships of war as transports, for the conveyance of troops on expeditions. In order to put the House in pos session of the objet he. had in view, he should be gin by reading a resolution which it was his inten tion to conclude with moving. The substance of the resolution was, that it appears to that House to be expedient to have in readiness a certain number of armed ships to be employed as transports, which from - the nature of their construction and equipment would prove much more efledual and useful than the hired transports now usually taken up for that service. The Noble Viscount then proceeded to take a view of the present state of the British Navy and of the hostile navies with which it might have to contend. , The British navy now consisted of 105 ships of the line. The different navies that could be brought to oppose it from every other part of the world did not amount to 80. All the Bri tish ships were fully manned and completely' equip ped. This was far frOm being the case with the hos tile navies. On this head, therefore, we had no danger to apprehend ;. on the contrary, so decided. was the superiority of our naval force, that it might be reduced without incurring any risk ; at least, it might supply a number of ships of the description he alluded to for kiting as transports. He would prefer 64's for that service ; and he would so con tinue them, that instead . of the usual complement, they would not require more than a third, or 164 men to work them. They should have at the ut most twenty guns, and at the least, twelve. Here already was'a great saving. But when theprompti- Ride with which they could convey troops, and the better accommodation which they would afford in every respect, were considered, how fir preferable would they be found to the hired • transports which were now employed, and which • required so much time and so much expellee to procure. The Noble Viscount next took a view of the different expedi tions on which - such troops and ships had been suc cessfully employed, and .contended„ that if in the months of January and February, I 809, such means had been prepared for carrying ten thousand men to Flushing, the whole of the French fleet then in 1 . that harbour might have been captured or de stroyed, the whole of the disasters and disgrace of \7 4 9 • riittiE:,E siistßb fiAil'iitl4l4t. the late Unfortunate Expedition to the Scheidt would have been avoided; The Noble Viscount then read a number of letters from serne•of the mo s t skilful officers of the navy, all recommending the adoptiod of this measure—a measure on, the naturd.and ad vantages, of which he had bestowed every research in his power, and which he could not too earnestly recommend to the attention of their Lordships: Lord MULGRAVE was willing to admit ninny of the positions 141 down by the Noble Viscow ; but it was necessary to compare the advantages with the disadvantages of the plan which he submitted to their Lordships —Certain he was that in praelice the advantages would be found ~,to prevail . When we considered the amount of our naval force; and the employment for which it was intended, it was not the enemy only we should have in view, formidable as was his power, and great as were the abilities of the man who now wielded all the resources of the continent—our navy was also nrcesSary for the: pro teCtion of our immense commerce, which eve!) , day increased, and which would consequently every day require greater means of proteetion. Any duninu- - tion of our naval force would therefore, under all the circumstances of the present moment, be little short of madness. The Noble Lord then appealed to a number of naval authorities in opposition to those cited by the Noble Viscount ; and also entered into a variety of calculations to prove that even in point of economy nothing would be gained by the !-Iro posed plan. Viewing it in that light Ire should op pose the Noble Viscount's resolution; but out ofre sped for that Noble Lord he should not give it a di red negative, but move the previous question. The Earl of GALWAY warmly defended the plan,- and put a number of cases, " in which he contended the greatest advantage would be derived from it: No doubt the necessity of maintaining the naval dis cipline might throw some impediment in the way of it; but these, he thought, might be removed, by the introduction of a Bill into Parliament to that effeal. Earl STANHOPE also defended the plan. In the present mode of building ships of win great errors were conspicuous. So faulty, indeed, was the present mode of constructing, that it was necessary to rebuild the whole of the navy every twelve years. Armed ships to be used as transports should have a particular form, and should not draw more than be yen feet of water. The Earl of WARWICK said a few worth against the resolution. Lord INIELVILLE, in reply, insisted on the obvious. advantages that would result from the plan, and trusted it would not be rejected on account of the quarter it came from. - The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, that if he had no other objection to the plan, the alteration it most produce in the discipline of the navy was to him an insurmountable objection. The preservation of that discipline was the soul and life of the navy ; and on the navy depended our prosperity and our very ex istence. The question was then put on Lord Ale!vale's motion, and the previous question was catriej out a division.—Adjourned at Ten o'clock, ROUSE OF COMMONS, MONDAY, MAY 21 . Mr. WHARTON presented an Account of Ekche quer Bills issued in pursuance of the 49th of his present Majesty.—Ordered to lie on the table. Mr. O'HARA obtained leave to bring in a Bill for respiting Still fines in Ireland'. ' The Surveyor-General's Blil was read a third time, and passed. Tile Scotch Excise Officers' Superannuation Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow. Mr. LUSHINGTON brought up the Report of the Committee of Supply. l'he Resolutions were read and agreed to, and Bills ordered accordingly. On the motion ot Sir C. MonoAN, au Account was ordered to be laid before the House, ot the quan tity of Coal and Culin exported from South NViiks during the year 1809.

Curtis, the Report was ordered to be taken into furttrer consideration on Wednesday. The Oil of Vitriol Bill went through a Commit tee, the report of which was ordered to be ceived to-morrow. The Bere Forest Bill was read a third time anti passed. The Foreign Silk Bill was read a second time and ordered to be committed to-morro4. • In a Committee of Supply it was tesolved, on the motion of M'r. Rose, .that a sum not ext eetling 13,7271. be granted to his Majesty for the purchasu of the late Mr. Grenville's collection of tninerals.— The report was ordered to be received to-mor. row. Mr. WHARTON brought in a, Bill to enable his Majesty to issue Exchequer Bills on the aids of .the year. Read a first, and ordered to be read a second time to.rnorrow. Mr. WHARTON brought' in a Bill to enable his Majesty to appropriate the supplies of the Stamp Duties of 1808, to defray the charges of the Loan or Stock created in the present year.
